Wall Lamp Sahure

Introducing the "Sahure Wall Lamp" by Eichholtz, a stunning creation inspired by a grand Egyptian column (ca. 2458–2446 B.C.) in the form of a date palm.

Now in The Met collection, this monumental column was one of 16 that surrounded an open courtyard in the pyramid temple of the pharaoh Sahure. The lamp's glass design pays homage to the intricate palm motifs on the Musuem's granite column, evoking a sense of timeless craftsmanship. With a height of 51.5 cm. and with a 14-cm. diameter, it unites ancient artistry and modern elegance. It perfectly complements the "Sahure Chandelier," and together, they make a luxurious lighting ensemble for your space.

HISTORIC PROVENANCE

The Wall Lamp Sahure is inspired by the ancient Egyptian Palm Column of Sahure (ca. 2458–2446 B.C,.), which stood at over 21 feet high in its original state. The granite column that now stands in the Egyptian art galleries at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is one of 16 that lined the perimeter of an open courtyard in the pyramid temple for the pharaoh Sahure. Our wall lamp takes it design cues from the date-palm leaves portrayed at the top of the Museum’s column. The tiered elements of the wall lamp are presented in smoked glass with a brushed-brass finish for a sophisticated look.
